High-End Hotel Tower In Downtown Austin
This 1.2-million s.f. facility features 35 meeting rooms and over 110,000-s.f. of banquet, meeting and exhibition space. The hotel also features a 3,500-s.f. fitness center. Rising 33 stories above the Austin skyline, the JW Marriott Convention Center Hotel’s urban setting with insufficient onsite parking, restricted materials storage and limited laydown space is presenting challenges that are well matched to solutions-oriented Bergelectric professionals.
Our national resources and well-thought-out approach that includes meticulous materials management and prefabrication innovation really helped Bergelectric rise to the top on this project. Berg was able to help the Hunt-Hardin JV identify constructability issues early in the bid process and also offer cost-saving national buying power for the hotel’s extensive decorative-fixture package.
Because the project requires a fully-coordinated 3D Model, Berg’s ability to upload pinpoint-accurate coordinates from the BIM model utilizing its in-house Trimble Total Station will prove to be particularly beneficial to keeping the project on track—providing maximum flexibility and cost savings. “Our detailing department will significantly enhance the onsite electrician’s ability to efficiently perform layout and measurement task in the field,” explained Berg’s BIM Manager.
